The pope spoke at the symposium “Nicaea and the Church of the Third Millennium: Towards Catholic-Orthodox Unity,” which took place this week at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas in Rome.
The International Theological Commission has published “Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior: The 1,700th Anniversary of the Ecumenical Council of Nicaea.”
“The proclamation of the common faith requires, first of all, that we love one another,” the Holy Father said in a Feb. 6 audience with Oriental Orthodox priests and monks.
Pope Francis highlighted the upcoming anniversaries of two major events in Church history as moments that can help Christians seek unity.
